My art practice is primarily concept-generated and research-based, usually in the context of my family’s history. My pieces are predominantly inspired by my wrestle with descending from multiple tribes and cultures, based on my multicultural Nigerian and Ghanaian background.
Under my studio and business, Frame Worthy Limited, my work extends from visual arts to other areas such as branding, graphic design, fashion and product design; providing art direction, art murals and graffiti pieces for corporate organisations and private clientele.
